    I could be wrong but I don’t think there even is a way to fully prevent adblocking without something like the proposed web integrity API, since it’s all clientside and the browser can easily just choose not to render any ads.

    Overall I do agree that less people using adblocks means less attention from corps and less adblock-blocks like youtube’s, but I’m conflicted on whether that’s a good enough reason to have most people suffer through so many ads.




  • Yeah, it’s insane we still have to deal with this in 2023… and it’s even worse for trans people, “transgenderism must be eradicated from public life entirely” and all that.

    There are people who aren’t financially independent yet that are facing the very real possibility of getting disowned by their family and thrown out on the street if they come out as anything but cishet. It sucks, but keeping this kind of information private can be lifesaving.










  • I don’t want them to know anything that isn’t completely necessary, and even that should be wiped as soon as it’s no longer relevant. Why should I be okay with corps recording all of my online behavior and preferences just so they can sell that info for a bit of extra profit?
